ABOUT ME

I'm a 21-year-old lady originally from Austin, Texas. I've spent the last 2 and 1/2 years in Claremont, CA attending Pomona College studying Modern History. Recently, I've come to realize that there are more things that I'd like to be learning outside of a classroom, and so I'm taking myself out of that academic community and returning home to the weirdest place I know.

I'm a bit of a quirky one, and tend to be more of an introvert. But I really enjoy meeting varied people from all walks of life, and love a good storyteller - the stranger the better. Stiff drinks and occasional smokes appreciated. I've been known to like the outdoors, and I enjoy perusing towns/cities/wherever cool shops are. Novelty never gets old for me.

I'm just down to discover!

Music, Movies, and Books

Kafka on the Shore, Persepolis, The Poisonwood Bible...music is all-encompassing (been in a Queen phase though)...Repo Man, The Dark Knight. That's the most skeletal skeleton I have. Really, anything that piques my interest in any context.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I honestly haven't had too many mind-altering life experiences (it's early days!!) but the one time I went to Europe, I was almost overwhelmed when I slid open my annoying airplane window, looked down, and saw the Alps glittery-white underneath our plane.
